Overlooking the Rhine Valley.
We spent 5 wonderful days with Tony’s aunt and uncle (his mother’s sister). Again we were spoilt with wonderful food and wines, all French of course. We met cousins and his mother’s brother and another sister who all made a fuss of us. We toured the Vosges mountains, France´s equivalent to the Black Forest in Germany. Had a day trip to Strasbourg, saw an amazing cathedral with an astronomical clock that included moving statues - it dates back 6 centuries. We drove through many vineyards along the Rhine valley with quaint little villages. Took a trip to Chateau Haut Koenigsbourg high on the top of a mountain overlooking the Rhine river valley from where we could see into Germany and the Swiss alps.

Next we are off to Koblenz where Germany´s Mosel and Rhine rivers meet.
